    摘要: An ablation burr has a body provided with an inner circumferential rim and an outer circumferential rim that are concentric and spaced longitudinally by a selected distance along the length of the burr. The outer circumferential rim has a generally smooth convex outer surface that reduces damage to a vessel wall or stent A leading surface of the burr extends between the inner and outer circumferential rims in a substantially uniform, concave manner. An abrasive, for example, diamond grit, is provided on the leading surface. The burr is selectively rotated by a drive shaft, causing the abrasive leading surface of the burr to ablate unwanted deposits. If desired, a wire extends co-axially through the body such that a distal end of the wire extends out of the distal end of the burr. An abrasive tip may be coupled to the distal end of the wire, and is selectively rotated, to ablate unwanted deposits. The burr may be made of a compressible elastomeric material, to facilitate positioning the burr through restrictive openings, such as the coronary ostia. To prevent the burr from becoming welded to a spring tip at the end of the guide wire, a bearing may be provided at a distal region of the guide wire. The bearing has a dynamic member that acts as a bumper and rotates when the ablation device is advanced to the distal region of the guide wire and contacts the dynamic member. In an alternative embodiment, the leading surface of the burr includes one or more aspiration ports through which debris that is ablated from the occlusion may be removed from a patient's vessel.
